Bolted Connection in Simulation not Allowing Selection

Hello everyone,

 

I am working on setting up an FEA simulation of the upright from the Formula Car tutorial. The tutorial goes through adding a bolted connection to the top mounting point and that works great. But when I try to do the same for the lower and steering mounting points, the bolt connection won't allow me to pick the correct circles to make it fasten. I have tried recreating the lower hole several times and still haven't had any success. Please let me know what I am missing. Thanks!

Hi @TomE8,

I see what you mean, Fusion isn't recognizing the edge of the hole as circular.  We can also see it using the measure command, it doesn't give a radius.
I cannot figure out how to edit the geometry to force it into making it a circle, so I've logged FUS-52499 for Development to look into.

Thank you for reporting this,
